Hey horror fans! I’m on the hunt for some lesser-known indie horror flicks. What are your top picks for underappreciated scary movies? I’m open to low-budget productions that punch above their weight or even B-movies with a cult following. I’ve seen a lot of mainstream stuff, so I’m really hoping to discover some hidden treasures in the genre. Maybe you know of a diamond in the rough that deserves more love? Share your recommendations and tell me why they’re worth checking out. I’m all ears for anything from creepy psychological thrillers to gory creature features. Let’s unearth some spooky indie goodness!
The Borderlands is a hidden gem. Slow burn found footage film with a killer ending. Got under my skin way more than I expected.
Session 9 is a creepy hidden gem. Low budget but the abandoned mental hospital setting is super eerie. The atmosphere really gets under your skin.
Man, indie horror has some real hidden gems. Lake Mungo is one that stuck with me. It’s this mockumentary about a family dealing with grief and some weird supernatural stuff. No cheap scares, just a creeping sense of dread that builds. The ending really messed me up. If you’re into slow burn psychological horror, definitely give it a shot.
Resolution on PS1 was pretty scary. The graphics were so blocky it made everything look extra creepy. Lake Feperd is a recent indie horror game that gave me some old school vibes. Not super polished but definitely unsettling.
Soma is an underrated horror game that really gets in your head. The underwater setting is super creepy and the story messes with you. Not many jump scares, but the atmosphere is intense. Definitely worth checking out if you want something different.
